Using text mining techniques to extract phenotypic information from the PhenoCHF corpus.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Phenotypic information locked away in unstructured narrative text presents significant barriers to information accessibility, both for clinical practitioners and for computerised applications used for clinical research purposes. Text mini...

Summarizing and visualizing structural changes during the evolution of biomedical ontologies using a Diff Abstraction Network.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Biomedical ontologies are a critical component in biomedical research and practice. As an ontology evolves, its structure and content change in response to additions, deletions and updates. When editing a biomedical ontology, small local updates may ...

KnowLife: a versatile approach for constructing a large knowledge graph for biomedical sciences.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Biomedical knowledge bases (KB's) have become important assets in life sciences. Prior work on KB construction has three major limitations. First, most biomedical KBs are manually built and curated, and cannot keep up with the rate at whi...

Evaluation of PHI Hunter in Natural Language Processing Research.

Perspectives in health information management
OBJECTIVES: We introduce and evaluate a new, easily accessible tool using a common statistical analysis and business analytics software suite, SAS, which can be programmed to remove specific protected health information (PHI) from a text document. Re...

A multi-technique approach to bridge electronic case report form design and data standard adoption.

Journal of biomedical informatics
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The importance of data standards when integrating clinical research data has been recognized. The common data element (CDE) is a consensus-based data element for data harmonization and sharing between clinical researchers, i...

Toward a view-oriented approach for aligning RDF-based biomedical repositories.

Methods of information in medicine
INTRODUCTION: This article is part of the Focus Theme of METHODS of Information in Medicine on "Managing Interoperability and Complexity in Health Systems".

Integrating Knowledge: The Power of Ontologies in Psychiatric Research and Clinical Informatics.

Biological psychiatry
Ontologies are structured frameworks for representing knowledge by systematically defining concepts, categories, and their relationships. While widely adopted in biomedicine, ontologies remain largely absent in mental health research and clinical car...
